THE STATE OF THE PINEAPPLES: The indoor grow lights are now in place and are ready to (hopefully) actually ripen these late fruits while indoors. All the rest of the plants get to benefit as well, of course. #PlantDad

Costuming day at the office. I'll be rocking the Appa kigu because it's easy and fluffy and it's Appa. The tail makes me happy, too. Though I'm not sure what kind of Bandit Heeler dance move I'm doing in that last one, I figured I would get a few pics before people show up this morning.

Vacation was excellent. Got a chance to wear the full leather uniform, along with my boy, @cubziz.com. Also received a recognition from my club brothers that left me stunned, humbled and brimming with teary-eyed gratitude. I might be sore, but my heart is full. 🥰🥰🥰
Mid-1990s grunge-haystack hair, though appealing in its own way, has been traded in for the homohawk and the commensurate restoration of gay powers, in accordance with prophecy. My boy @cubziz.com cleans up very purty... (Yes, I cut his hair outside. Cleanup is *so* much easier that way.)
Vacation vibes are coming on... (Also reacquainting myself with my poi before I do fire for the first time since before COVID lockdown and this belly showed up in such a pronounced way... 😅😅😅)
It's that time of year, folks. Just a bit over two weeks of vacation, mostly off-grid, unplugged, and in retreat so that I can regain my sanity and the ability to face down the usual bullshit that I have to deal with on the daily. Details in the thread...
Why yes, I *do* brush my teefs in shower, even at the gym. Been doing it for decades. It means I don't forget to do it every day, and means I never get toothpaste down my front. At home, I even have a water-floss thing installed that hooks into the shower head for even more oral hygiene goodness.
*arrives at work after gym, does minor beard groom, becomes a judgey nerd-bear, judges you all slightly, in accordance with prophecy* Now to put on enough clothes that I can pretend I'm a vanilla mortal so they'll pay me to train up these baby lawyers to go do good in the world.
Morning gym. Sweaty. Need more caffeine. Gonna be a long-ass day.
Patience, integrity and perseverance all quite high, because I'm tenacious and principled as fuck, especially related to internal things. Kindness, bravery and justice all substantial, because I'm willing to risk extending both grace and fairness to those around me. Low determination? Fuck rigidity!
Final day of Orientation and Ethical Client-Centered Representation training for our newly-hired public defenders. Of course casual Friday meant septum and t-shirt time, so I opted for a coordinated big black buffalo pincher and my DO JUSTICE LOVE MERCY shirt from the Equal Justice Initiative.
Me working this week during training, doing the mentor/mentee First Meeting, killing the imposter syndrome and reminding myself that I actually *do* know what the fuck I'm doing in this new job, training up new public defenders... Huzzah! ☺️😁👍
Sushi lunch with my beautiful fuzzy bullpuppy boy. And homosexual agenda item achieved. Between my bulge and the banana Bara Donkey Kong's sportin', there were lots of stares and frowns. Suck it, hidebound prudish MAGAts!
Today's fashion statement, as we head out to lunch and the arcade: "Pride month might be over, but aggressive homosexuality is a joy year round. Look away in fear and disgust and envy, conservative shitbags. If you are offended--GOOD. You were supposed to be offended."
Well, I guess this is 47. All things considered, I could've done far worse. I'll take it. Here's to another trip around the sun! Thanks to all for the well-wishes!
Wearing bulgy hoochie shorts and as many other things I can think of to offend the Sunday sensibilities of the backward Midwestern folk as I drive through.
Now cigar and boozy coke slushie in shorts that are probably a liiiiiittle too tight. But that people here will undoubtedly appreciate... A very relaxing Saturday... 🤤🫠😁👍
Birthday weekend with my boy, @cubziz.com. He's so handsome. Repping club and nerd-cred today. I'm very relaxed and am about to scarf all-you-can-eat sushi. Both the inner fox and bear are happy.
New septum piece. Notched gorilla glass. I was hoping it would stay in without gaskets, but alas, no. Even so, I still very much like it.
Is there anything so sweet, Any greater balm to the soul, Any more satisfying succor to the spirit, Than the silent scorn of white, wealthy people? The stare, the glare, the side-eyed glance, The grimace, the frown, The scandalized, pearl-clutching looks That refuse to meet my returned gaze?
Mmmmmmm... Hotel lighting... Might as well use it when I've got it, even if only to give the Bad Daddy™ look to the camera.
Up early for the gym before work means a nice hot shower and then venting steam and grooming a bit once I get to the office, before folks get there. Tongue because I'm a ridiculous goofball. Happy Monday, me buckos!
Sunday morning at gay church. Bulge, biceps and big ol' tiddies. Now for some work.
As much as I know some might protest the loss, I *do* actually have to wash the stank off at the gym before work. Sorry, sniffers. At least there was hot water today. My aching back and shoulders very much appreciated it.
